Module 1: Attending a Meeting

Module 1: Overview As a member of NTU staff, Microsoft(R) Office Live Meeting will already be installed onto your Office PC.

You can join a meeting directly from a invitation or from your calendar appointment whether you are the meeting host or an attendee.

This session which typically takes 10 minutes to complete will show you how.

Module 1: Learning Outcomes By the end of this 10 minute module you will be able to:

9 Using a simulation, join a Live Meeting from Microsoft Outlook 9 Identify the difference between Meet Now and Scheduled Meeting requests

The Live Meeting Request 1. Meet Now email request

2. Scheduled Meeting Request You can receive two types of meeting request. An email request for an immediate (ad hoc) meeting or a scheduled meeting invite.

If you have received a message for an immediate meeting (Meet Now email request) you can just click Join the meeting from inside the email.

2. To join a meeting which is scheduled at a later date, open up the appointment in your calendar or meeting request in your inbox and click on Join the meeting.

Try it! Step 1: Double click on your appointment to open it. Step 2: Then click on Join the Meeting inside the request. Step 3: The You are now connecting to the meeting message appears. After a few seconds you will be connected to Live Meeting.

Summary - Joining a Meeting

Meet Now email requests An impromptu meeting can be set up to start immediately. In this case an email request rather than a meeting request will be sent. You can join the meeting from within the message body.

Produced by Centre for Professional Learning and Development – 22 March 2010 Microsoft Office Live Meeting at Nottingham Trent University Meeting requests When a scheduled meeting is set up a calendar appointment invite similar to any other meeting request is sent.

When you accept the meeting, you will still be able to view the original request in your deleted items, or within your calendar.

To join the meeting open the appointment from your calendar when the meeting is due to start and click on Join the meeting.

Meetings can also be set up as recurring events.

Starting Voice and Video on your Computer After you join the meeting, you can talk with the others in a telephone conference call or by using a microphone.

You can click on the microphone icon to mute or unmute your microphone. (You will need headphones or a speaker to hear the audio.) If you have a Web cam and want others to see you, just

Click on the Web cam icon to share or stop sharing video.

A web cam and a headset are optional extras. The camera makes the most of the face to face experience but isn’t essential; neither is a headset as the audio element will work via a telephone.

If using computer headphones, click on the down arrow next to volume to access the volume controls in the Voice & Video pane.

Using your Phone as a Microphone and Speaker To join audio using any telephone: Call 0115 84 84448 and enter the Conference ID followed by # and the Passcode when prompted followed by #.

These details can be found within your meeting invite or, if you have already joined the meeting, in the Meeting Menu Bar item. If you are joining the conference from an analogue or mobile phone you will appear in the Attendees pane as your telephone number. If you are using an IP phone this will display your name.

You should appear in the Attendees list twice if you have already joined using your computer.

You may wish to check your computer microphone is muted (if you have one) by clicking on the microphone icon in Microsoft Office Live Meeting.

Produced by Centre for Professional Learning and Development – 22 March 2010 Microsoft Office Live Meeting at Nottingham Trent University Module 2: Using Microsoft® Office Live Meeting During the meeting you can adjust the volume, interact with others through chat or ask a question.

This module will explain the screen layout, how to customise your screen and interact in your meeting.

By then end of this module you will be able to: Choose the correct menu item to perform a task Understand how to personalise your screen

A Note on Meeting Roles There are two roles you could have when attending a Live Meeting.

• A Presenter • An Attendee

A Presenter will run the meeting once it has started. A Presenter can show and annotate documents from almost any software application, or share an application from their own computer in real time. The Presenter can turn the Live Meeting over to one of the attendees to control the application being shared. We will explore the tools available to the Presenter in the next module.

An attendee can interact with the Presenter by asking questions using a Q&A tool, or verbally using a conference call/microphone. They can establish a Chat session with the Presenter, or use a coloured indicator to raise their hand or call attention to a problem.

The Menu Bar Here is an image of the Menu bar. The Menu Bar is the upper most toolbar and has the following commands in order, left to right: Content, Attendees, Voice & Video, Q & A, Meeting, Recording, Volume, Microphone, Web cam, Handouts, Shared Notes, Feedback and Help.

Content The content pane allows you to manage, show and switch between content items, such as a whiteboard, documents, presentations, areas of your desktop and create a quick poll.

You will only see this menu item if you are a presenter or have been given permission to control the content. More information on permissions and sharing content is provided in Module 3.

Attendees The attendees pane enables you to view all present in the meeting, invite more attendees (if you are a presenter), view whether they have video and/or audio and their feedback status.

Further information on managing attendees is provided in Module 3.

Voice and Video This pane includes the video and audio controls. You can mute your voice, adjust the volume through your headphones and turn your web cam on or off. You can also see both your own image and the current speaker (if web cams are used).

Further information on joining voice and video was covered in Module 1.

Q&A The questions and answers pane allows meeting members to pose questions to the presenter who can then choose whether or not to answer directly, show everyone the question and answer, or pass the question to the floor.

More information on managing questions and answers is included in Module 3.

Meeting In this pane, meeting information is given including information for dialling into the conference. See Joining Voice and Video in Module 1.

Recording From the Recording pane you can change the location your recordings are saved to, choose what you wish to record, start and stop recording and playback earlier recordings.

Further information on creating and managing recordings is given in Module 5.

Volume This button mutes or unmutes sound from the conference (through your speakers or headset). These settings only affect your computer connection and not your call if you dialled in.

Microphone Icon This button mutes or unmutes your microphone (if you have one). These settings only affect your computer connection and not your call if you dialled in.

Web cam Icon This button allows you to send or stop sending video from your web cam.

Handouts This button opens the Handouts window where a presenter can upload files for attendees to download. More information on this tool is covered in Module 3.

Shared Notes Shared Notes is a text editor pane that all participants can use to type notes. This feature can be used to take and display meeting minutes, create a list of action items during a meeting, or to capture ideas.

Feedback The feedback drop down enables you to quickly alert the presenter to any issue you may have or raise your hand to ask a question without talking over the current speaker.

Produced by Centre for Professional Learning and Development – 22 March 2010 Microsoft Office Live Meeting at Nottingham Trent University

Help From the help menu you can view Microsoft Office Live Meeting Online help files and provide feedback.

The Menu Bar - Docking a menu item By default your workspace is empty. The first six menu items on the Menu Bar are moveable panes. You can click a menu item and then drag the pane anywhere on your screen. If you drag a pane to the far left, far right or bottom of the Live Meeting screen you will see a blue shaded area appear.

Dropping a menu into a shaded area will dock the item (fix its location) so it can be kept in view on your screen.

In the example shown the Attendees pane is dragged and dropped onto the left hand panel of the screen.

Personalising Live Meeting Once you have arranged the menu items on your screen, Microsoft® Office Live meeting will remember your settings and this will now be your default layout.

Once your panes are fixed in this way you will be able to show and hide menu items just by clicking on their title on the menu bar. You can dock more than one pane into an area. In the example here, I have Voice & Video, Questions and Answers and Content panes all docked onto the left hand side of the screen, with the Attendees pane at the bottom.

Interacting with others - Feedback If you are having difficulties - for example you can't hear the speaker or need assistance - you can alert the presenter and attendees using Feedback.

Your feedback status is shown next to your name in the Attendees pane.

To change your Feedback status: Click on the drop down arrow to the right of Feedback: Then click on the most appropriate item to change your status.

Interacting with others - Using Chat Both attendees and presenters can initiate Chat, a one-to-one instant messaging window. Presenters can also block chat from individuals. Chat conversations cannot be saved.

This is one way to get your attendees to discuss a topic in pairs, or for you to alert another presenter of an update or to check information without interrupting the whole meeting.

To initiate chat:

Step 1: Double click on the person's name in the Attendees pane or right click and click chat. This will open a 1:1 Chat window.

Produced by Centre for Professional Learning and Development – 22 March 2010 Microsoft Office Live Meeting at Nottingham Trent University
